Yes, most gliders do have landing gear. A common arrangement is a single wheel in the fuselage just forward of the center of weight, with a tiny tail wheel and roller skate wheels at the tips of the wings.
The center wheel is mostly enclosed by the fuselage, making the aircraft appear from a distance that it does not have landing gear.
